Night Watch just confused me, and I didn't see what was so special about it. I might check this out, but I am firmly in the fence about it...
this one is the way better than the first one.
I saw this long ago, it kicked major a$$!!!!! I'll be grabbing this one real fast. And Zhanna Friske is such a hottie. 
The book was better but this was not bad.
A must have for my collection.
I did not get the appeal of the first one. I found it confusing and all over the map. Hopefully this second one is an improvement.
atleast the quote provided on the cover is not coming from Pete Hammond. But regarding the quote, it was not as highly acclaimed or quite noticeable on the public compared to Lord of the Rings and 300, i dont think is a rather good comparison.
I liked the first one a lot, and this one is even better as there is no introduction of characters and continues the story from the get-go (so if you have not seen the first one, you won't have a clue as to what is going on). This one also clears up some of the confusing elements of the first and allows you to watch the first with a little more understanding.

So you're saying I should rewatch Night Watch right before I watch Day Watch?

Day Watch is indeed better, but that is one c**ppy-ass cover we're dealing with here.
Isn't it just the poster zoomed in a bit?
I like the cover for Night Watch better.
Yeah, Night Watch's poster gives it a classic '80s artwork look to it.
A better movie than the first one, bland dvd coverart though.

Hardly bland!

I honestly (not trying to troll) could barely get through the first one. It was so boring, repetitive, and anti-climactic. I really wanted to like it, cause everyone i knew who had seen it kept going on and on about how amazing it was, but it was just too confusing. Sure, I had the opportunity to sit down and take in all that was going on, but i just didnt care to make the effort, it was terribly uninteresting.
if this film is at least half better than the first, i'll give it a try. now is it half better, or is it just a small step above the first? let me know.

Haven`t seen this one yet, loved Night Watch though.

Where's the region 2 dvd? I'm holding out for a 2 disc region 2 edition.

That GIANT unrated stamp is bad enough on the cover, but on the side it just looks ridiculous.
All the same, I'll be blind buying this. Loved the first one, and didn't get to see this one as it wasn't playing anywhere near me.
Were the subtitles in this film done all awesome like the first one? If so, this is the only time I can think of where I really hope that it's gonna be a flipper (since it's just the one disc).

The first one was amazing and if you say guys that the second is better than the first than it must be Ultra Amazing.
This is a defenitive purchase for me but in Region 2.

It might help, but what I was meaning to say, is that after you watch Day Watch, you "get" more of what is going on in Night Watch. Sort of watching it in a different light....

Oh, I know... but I just think a fresh rewatch of Night**tch would be beneficial in any case.

The first one wasn't bad, but, it was confusing, and, that ending with the "battle" sequence or whatever it was suppose to be was done very, very sloppy. And, I thought 300 was so overrated, so, I hope that quote isn't a lie.

I thought this was better than Night Watch but still not great.
